Pedestal

Pedestal opens with bright grapefruit and mandarin hitting the skin immediately—citrus so sharp it prickles—before a crush of mixed fruits rounds the top into something almost jammy. The heart settles into delicate orange blossom and jasmine, their white florals softening the citrus rather than replacing it, creating an almost creamy veil. As it dries, vetiver emerges green and slightly smoky beneath the flowers, while cedarwood adds structure and patchouli grounds everything into warm earth, the citrus now a memory, only woody amber and soil remaining.
